Quoted from lowepg:

I think he was just typing fast to outrun the impending threadkick....
Re: TH,
Im not a prepayer, but have HUGE interest in this theme....
I have to say its improved 1000% over the last few months, but if Im being honest, I was hoping for it to eclipse WoZ (at least in appearance).... Im not feeling that.
I will say that I would probably have a considerably BETTER opinion of the game if it was just revealed today as-is.... All the hype about Smaug set very high expectations. The current iteration, while better, is still a letdown (IMO).
I look forward to playing one on location this year. (Come on Flippers in the outer banks, please tell me you have one coming!).

I talked to Dave at Flippers Saturday and yes they have Hobbit coming. And a two collector friends local to RDU have one coming.

Quoted from lowepg:

Ugh... those windows are brutal- and TH is almost the farthest from them- the other pins are even WORSE! Guess they really want ppl to come at night (and drink more!)
How did you find the center ramp shots? I felt myself wanting a bit more OOOMF behind the flippers.....Sometimes the ball wouldn't even carry all the way around the loop - and just fall back down the other ramp entrance...But then again, it could also be attributed to my sloppy, imperfect shots.

They are moving the pins away from the widows to the upper part where the pacman and DK machines are. Should help with glare.
